SIDs for freeware game

Hello,
I'm a programmer and I'm working on a Tetris game clone. It's colorful and with robotic theme so I wanted to add some electronic music. And what is more electronic than SIDs? :)

I wanted to ask if is there some composer who could give me few SIDs with permission that I can play them in my freeware game. Of course I will give all credits.

Game is nothing big so all I want is only some already created music (about 3 or 4 tracks), it could be something quick and crazy.

Is there anyone who could help me?

I'd guess there are plenty of composers around here who wouldn't mind if you used their stuff.
No, I'm not proposing myself here. But I probably wouldn't mind either :-D

If you ask nicely, someone might even fix you up with an exclusive tune.

Hi StainlessSteel,
thank you for your reply. I have checked your music and I like "So_Predictable". So if you would not mind I would love to use it - it's quick and possitive.

I saw that you have some other stuff in Favorites#2, It's also yours? I like Zardax.

About your reply again, so you say that I should search this web and choose some tunes and then countact particular author, right? I'm a bit confused here because there is so much stuff :) Do you have any suggestions (friends/favourite composers whou would borrow me few tracks)?

@sdraco : most of my stuff are remixes/covers (so_predictable is one of my rare originals), feel free to use whichever you like, as long as its for non-profit.

And what Groepaz said.

Hi,
thanx everybody for replies.

Really can I feel free to use tunes from hvsc? I have some favourite ones but most of them are missing author so I didn't want to steal any credits. Maybe I will just specify filename and that It's from hvsc in game credits.

To Linus: Your tunes are so nice but my project is small so I don't want to uselessly make somebody working on exclusive new tunes. Maybe if I will make something bigger in future I will ask. Anyway, I'm glad that I have an opened door there.

Thanx again for support, I will post here a link to game when It will be released :)

Don't worry about Linus. he'll just recycle one of his older tunes, as usual.

But he can always optimise them. ;)

Don´t worry about Stainless Steel either. His popular-top40-hit.midi to .sid converter works pretty reliable by now.
